The Matic is an $1,800 floor-cleaning robot that its founders claim can navigate your home more efficiently, recognize gestures, and won’t suck up your socks.
The Matic is a new robot vacuum with a different approach to cleaning your floors. Built by two former Google Nest engineers, it’s designed to move around your home in the same way most humans would, processing things visually instead of spatially. It uses five RGB cameras to navigate, rather than the sensors, bumpers, and lidar tech found on most of today’s robot vacs.
Nariyawala claims Matic has the same efficacy as an upright vacuum but doesn’t get louder than 55db. That’s the quietest level of almost any robot vacuum I’ve tested, and none can get a carpet as clean as an upright can. The key here, according to Nariyawala, is that suction power isn’t as important as agitation and the capability of the brush roll to get up dirt. That theory is one that’s held up in my testing of robot vacs.
